well now. its totally up to you but i think you should save up some more. you can get a Hard of a lot better one for like $900+. it is seriously worth the wait. a $500 computer is not gonna run skyrim and any game other than sf (probably will have fps lag at some point).

No I am afraid this laptop will not be good enough for Skyrim, let alone Metro Last Light. The latter is a very graphically heavy game and in order to atleast get 30 fps you would need more than 1GB video memory and a graphics card that has a core speed of over 800 and memory speed of over 4000 I reckon, this HD 8330 with only 500 MHz core speed and 800 MHz memory speed is by far not enough. Also that card has DDR3 memory, which means that it only can handle data one at a time and not multiple at once like GDDR memory. Look at this http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=1127&game=Metro: Last Light website and see for your self what kind of hardware you would need to run Metro Last Light. This HD 8330 of yours is 156% less powerfull than the minimum requirement HD 3870 LOL! Also, I didn't see a CPU listed in that list so can't tell about that, but it's probably just as simple as the GFX. And the list didn't show how much RAM that laptop has. You would need atleast 2GB, preferably 4 or more to run Metro Last Light if all the other hardware is also up to the level. You might be able to play Skyrim, but with <10 FPS in cities and maybe 15-20 FPS out in the wild with that PC.
